Case Study

The Janakpuri District Center in Delhi is a major commercial center that houses offices, shops, restaurants, and a crafts bazaar. It has good connectivity through two metro stations, buses, and roads. Thousands of people work and shop there daily. However, the center lacks social spaces and maintenance, and was previously unhygienic, though it has improved in recent years. Locally available materials like stone, granite, marble, bamboo, and thatch are used in its construction.
